prophecy of the two horns out of the wind. (December prophecy)

They will be two horns coming out of these fierce winds. Each horn will try to take grounds and match towards the river. The river won't contain them anymore. They will come out and ravish each other to cause other rivers to intervene but they will not end their dispute until they were completely separate. 

Whispers of Heaven with a terrible sign

Perhaps, just perhaps, God may have been using this coronavirus to wake us up and let us know that there is life after this Earth. We shouldn't look at this Earth as our home but we are here only for temporary and then eternity waits . Maybe this is a sign from God but a terrible sign, but as I am aware that God can use anything no matter how grievous it is, to wake us up of our stupor and point us to His direction.

prophecy of November 2020

It is time for Christians to return back to the Bible and not politics. Bible believers are to walk the walk of Jesus and not be on different political parties. God is calling His people to return back to His path.

Prophecy of September

God is breaking down every foundation of America. From the government poor leadership in handling the pandemic, to the handling of racial injustice of the judicial system, to the law enforcement and the constitution. Expect more episodes of America's self- destruction ways to come until we come to the place of repentance and forsake our evil ways. 

The Mantle

The mantle

I let up, falling down from the pinnacle I stood, a place of safety where all my false identity lies, far as man is concerned he has no victory,. He lifts himself up but falls eventually in the end. The heat, the rain, still much will he engage. The fight continues, the life that never was, a life that withers away, slowly but assuredly. But can a lost man know His way out?  In a grave will a dead man fight his undertaker? For he has no hope but to be buried and live no more. The battle he battle he lost, long before he was born. The fight he fought but only to find himself fighting a windstorm.What hope does he have? Who fights for the blind man heading straight to his grave?

The triumphant King, fights the battle, He is the One after all, the messiah that was once prophesied by many prophets, that he will soon return.
He is the one his father once spoke about in the garden, the garden were man fell. The seed that will bruise the serpents head. The serpent in his throne, devouring men and impede his will.
Moreover, the kingdom once entrusted to men, he stole and filled his cup with their blood. The mantle he kept, parading it in the eyes of his followers, filled them with promises while sending their souls to Hades.
But the Son of Man, the root of Jesse's, who is and was, the messiah came to the rescue. He gave the call and the heart of men was his harvest. He had to die to live and to live again and live for man to know life. He was life. He also was the antidote of a dying world. A world dead in trespasses and sins. In his death, he rose and took captives free. He became triumphant in his death and took the mantle from the serpent and gave man eternal life.

Money

It doesn't matter how much you make; if you don't respect money, you will never have enough of it.

Opportunity

If you are not given an opportunity; create one!

Parable of the Wicked Merchant

My song is over, where do I go from here?

I have no more voice,  my father's name is unknown, my mother's hands is no longer found.Every place I go darkness surrounds me, I see no hope, I see no light.

I have no more words to say, neither do I have anymore freedom to choose. I have all the time for regrets and have no time for choice.

I have lost my way, and I have given away my years. How I hated instructions and I listened not to the voice of my teachers.

The King's herdsman were right, there's is a way which seems right to a man, but the end thereof is the ways of death.

I have sold my birthright to the wicked merchant, and he gave me death.

I warmed my hands in his campfire, I ate his seedless friuts, I stood before many and I bought a lie, I took the bait of life.

Life is snuffed out, love has turned away, knowledge is unreachable.

I am plagued by ignorance, I am smeared by bitterness, and I am eaten up by hate.

My hope is gone, eternity of pain is all I see, I have lost my song, I have lost my voice, where do I go from here?

A goat amongst the flock

Hush, the time has come to be separated,  come out amongst the flock, your horn has shown,  you have been tolerate far too long. Now the days of your work has been revealed. 

Oh you stubborn goat, with your huff stucked in the mud, restlessness has born you, nursed you and now spit you out. You have no Shepherd, you have lost your way and have no boundary. 

Plead your case oh restless goat! Where have you been grazing?  Not in my field, my sheepfold have drank and fed on my pasture, their are well watered. You have no place here, go!

Weren't you the one that my herdsmen once called, and all the while you withstood your ground, a sound of laughter and jeers,  ever learning and never coming to the truth , gouging from the poisonous trees, huffing and puffing while being led to the slaughter house.

Go from here you stuborn goat, You are not mine and I have no place for you! From where do you come from? The narrow path leads to the north, the broader path leads to south, go to the Southgate, a place of torment, where worms never die.

The Acidulous Friend

Endured the moment and laugh not at my story; for your laughter is deadlier than the evil days.

Encourage me not, and tell me no fantasy; for your calloused heart says it all.

Don't bid me farewell, but let me abscond in harmony; for your emotions won't let me rest:

Cry not in my eulogy,  but let me sleep in peace; for your tears is too costly at my grave .

The Countenance of God

Fall and worship Him,
Bring gifts from all four corners of the Earth. For our God is good. His Mercy is Everlasting.

Sound the trumpet , throw your crowns at his feet. He alone is worthy to be praised.

A gift from above that he gave to all men will last forever. He is the one who was called from the north to deliver his people.

Let them being olive branches and display on pathways, though we dig no vineyards nor did plant any olives.

The pomegranates for eating, comes from his hand, the grains and the flocks are his provision. Therefore we only bow our heads in reverence.

His splendor, comes and permeates the garden, May we dare not look at your countenance, for you are  glorious! We can only you bring our worship.

The God of Israel lives in my heart,  the mighty One,  who is for ever praised. Come let us worship Him, his countenance is upon us , let us bring our worship and give him all the praise.

While reopening the American economy during Covid-19 pandemic will be more devastating than good.

1) Hospital will be overwhelmed by patients of Covid-19, that the health workers will be more focus on pandemic preventions than treating those that have other illnesses.

2) The inexperienced people will relax preventive measures and CDC guidelines after sometime. 

3) Without the vacine, more fatalities will continue to rise and the mortuary will be fully booked to have only limited appointments only. That means that your dead relatives will have to stay with you for sometime. 

4) Companies will be reluctant to hire newer employees only to laid them off when there's a second or third wave.

5) Covid-19 is still a new virus, we still don't know much about it.

Abaddon: The Locust King

Meditations : Revelation 9: 1-11

Out of the smoke of furnace we come,  flee to the mountains,  there we will be,  our sting is like no other.

Inside the crevices of the rock, at the dens, beneath the oceans and the valley, from the highest trees to the swarms, in and out of every corner of the stones,  across the seas to the desert; there you will find us.

The plenty and fattened we will  feast, the the weak and strong, the young and aged, the simple and the learned; we'll leave nothing unturned. 

Howbeit that we saw not the sign, since the old days,  we had no king, yet we devoured and marched in unison.

We came across Egypt and left it parched, but at Goshen we stopped and passed by. Now the children of God has gone to the Northern Country.

Let us now march across the earth, our teeth has been sharpened for centuries.

Devour all of them that have been left on earth, those that are not sealed, those that took the mark of the unholy one. For those who have traded in their souls for a pint of barley.

Our tails are swift  and ready to strike, our teeth are like the Lions, our breastplate are strong like an iron.

Like Arabian horses we are ready  to make war, let us go now you battle! Because Abaddon  is our king, a fallen star.

Let us go to the earth and make war with the children of men, those without the seal of God.

Two fierce winds (prophecy of July)

There is a stiring up of two winds; two boats are going together in one river and when it meets the two winds, it splits and the two boats goes in divergent paths, where they are stirred up together. 

A Christian

A Christian life is not something you try to be but who you are; when you try to be a Christian, you will fail. 

The Race

I know where my path leads

When my end comes, there I go

I know who waits for me at the end of my life.

The one who died for me; Jesus, He waits for me; to give me eternal life he has done. 

He now waits for me to finish this race;

I must do the work for, for my Master, who waits for me.

Even though this life is for temporary, there's eternal life. 

I must do the work for, for my Master, who waits for me.

He loves me so dearly, so I must do  the work for Him. 

Lord, you are so good, I will bless Your name.

Lord, You are so good, I will glorify You

Lord, You are so good, I must do Your work!

Lord, You are so good, I must win Your race! 

Lord, You are so good, even if I fail, You have won it for me. 

I must do the work for, for my Master who waits for me. I want to hear His words, well done! Well done! Well done! Come sit with me. 

Two sides of a coin

Nobody  has the authority to speak on behalf of another person's perspective. A coin has two sides; you cannot argue one side  out of the other. Both sides of a coin is still a coin, whether heads or tails. You can't argue your way out of another person's viewpoint, all you can do is to understand where they are coming from and sympathize with them. That's being human.

Wise Companionship

He who walks with wise man will be wise but the companion of fools will be destroyed. Proverbs 13: 20

Surround yourself self not with good friends nor bad friends but the right friends!

The prophecy of the Well

Go to the well. The well is where the living water is, not the faucet. The faucet gives out recycling water, and has a lot of chemicals in it. It is pollution!  The well is however a reservoir that overflows with water, fresh water from the heavens. 

Doctrines

People don't change by hearing doctrines; they change by the doctrines that lives and breath in them that preaches it.

Prophecy for the month of June

God is poking the hearts of evangelicals in America and His word is repent or else. We have seen series of misfortunate events transpired over a short period of time. From the pandemic to the murder of George Floyd, and the Supreme Court decision for workplace equality that had shaken the core of our christian beliefs. There will be more shaken of every foundation if we don't humble ourselves and repent and turn from the world affairs to evangelism and discipleship and ministering of righteousness and justice. In James 1:27, KJV: it says "Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world."

Does Western Christianity still practice this scripture? Do we still visit the fatherless in our communities and the widows who were afflicted with injustice with the love of Christ and stay away from world politics? Rather, we stay churched up with people who looked like us and have forgotten the great commission; to go into the world ( and set apart from our own views and comfortability), to the dying world with the message of the gospel of Christ. Again, we have seen not enough of the sorrows but the beginning of it. But with sorrow comes great harvest, and we the laborers, are so few.

Scattered Seeds

Just to be “part of” something is merely touching the surface of fidelity. Whether dealing with people, a goal or a cause, the place below the landmark which we shunned away from is the focal point. The nastiest neighborhoods, the stubbornness of the redheaded stepchild, down to the dirt, the abyss, the bottom of the barrel, the place we ought not to visit is always the place where the harvest is. What separates those with hypothesis statements to the realist is that there are those willing to endure the awful smell, the excruciating pain, and the disappointments and still keep the faith. These people will resurface with a better perspective. But the person that tackles many things at once is far different than someone committed to one thing. There are only scattering seeds around the earth while no one really cultivates it.

~ Excerpt from Man under the Sun

The Lone path

There is great strength in walking alone, an eagle flies alone, a tiger hunts alone. 

Lesson about service

When turned 40, I just learned a valuable lesson. To find yourself you have to lose yourself in the service of others. I know this is hard but self-preservation will make you a very lonely person!

Do all things for God

Give your gifts to God, if you are a singer sing for God, if you are an artist perform for God, if you are a dancer, dance for God, if you are a pastor, shepherd for God, if you are a manager, manage for God, a father, raise a child for God, a mother, the raise a child for God, a teacher, teach for God. Do all things for God and you will never ever ever have any regrets!

The Cry of the Martyrs

Father help us, the world has closed their ears on our suffering; they have chosen to shut their eyes to even look at our pain.

We are men who have walked in the way of the Righteous and have felt the sting of the scorpions.

They regarded us not as worthy of life but in their anger, have stripped away all our dignity and has cast us away like the scum of the Earth.

With teary eyes we looked up to heaven but Your response was silent.

We were led one to another, shoulder to shoulder toward the valley of slaughter.

On the banks of the river where the blood of our brethren was washed out, the cruel forgot mercy but raised their hand on Your people.

They profaned Your name and Your Son Jesus Christ and with hatred, they spilled our blood in vain.

Now Lord, arise and strengthen our backs; let us as we march, stand with our heads held high.

Let us follow the path of those who have left a good witness on Earth. They have run the race of life and have been found worthy to receive Your reward. 

Help us in this perilous hour; for the river of blood is flowing through the whole surface of the land.

They have spared none of these ones who called upon Your name. 

~ excerpt from North and South Gate: a tale of two voices.

Knowledge

Pass on knowledge but know that it is not always retainable only by what you say but what you demonstrate.

Evil

Evil is never to be repaid in any way except good. Roman 12:21

Prayer

The man who falls on his feet daily in prayer is better than fifty swordsmen on the battlefield. Many times we lose the battle because we fail to communicate with God.

A Murderer in disguise

How is it that I bled hatred?

In my heart my chest explodes!

Calling for blood; rather a blood of a black man!

My plans, if they fail me not, is to hide behind a shadow, in a uniform, and snuff out a black man with the help of my badge.

I will say, look! I have done my duty, I have uphold the law! While my hands are soaked in blood; in a black man's blood. 

Forsake me not, I was a soldier, fighting for a cause; a cause to serve and protect, to lay down my life and upheld that which was lawful.

But hatred breeds within me; I am full of hate! And I despise those that resembles my fears. For in the beginning, I may claim that it was lawful but all story ends. 

I am hatred and a murderer in disguise.

Prayer of a broken heart

Father, I pray  for racism in the United States especially the police department. The culture is murder and Lord I ask that your kingdom come and your will be done. Lord destroy the evil of law enforcement (some) who thought that they can get away with murder of a black man. Lord, seek them out, let not them that commit murder have any peace until they depart: let guilt overload them until they repent. Lord have mercy on our justice system as well. We desperately need your grace throughout the season where all pandemic and unemployment and racism has plagued this country. Lord, we desperately need your help. Lord, I pray all to this in Jesus name

Free knowledge and experience

When you are around aged and experienced folks, keep your mouth shut and your ears open; so to get knowledge and experience; do not miss your learning moments by talking it away. 

Strengthening the feeble among us: The cost of being a disciple for Jesus.

Today in our modern culture where comfort dominates sacrifice,  the word of Jesus should resonate more so than the comfort of Christianity. 

We have been seeing many because of the current condition of the world deterred from the faith.

At the same time I sympathize with some; depending on their individual circumstances but at the other hand, I will make it clear also that in tumultuous times, it is then when true believers rise to the occasion.

This is especially so in the case of many believers in the early churches who painted their faith with blood. It was their blood that was shed and with a dying love for our Lord Jesus Christ that they embraced the jaws of death willingly. 

While this is not yet the times of the martyrdom church however, it should be a benchmark to measure our faith upon. 

We have to ask the question and not shy away from it.

What would happen if I am asked to give up my life for my faith?  I wouldn't want to be careless in answering such a daunting questions but it is also imperative to make such a bold stand earlier on.  Whatever answer we choose to make, we can then begin there and really consider and rearrange our priorities for the sake of the gospel of Our Lord Jesus Christ.

And while it may be tempting to dismiss such an argument, however it is best to reexamine the cost of Christianity.

And as our Lord reasserts that whoever does not willingly give up everything, cannot be his disciple. (Luke 14:27)

In which the concept of being " a Christ follower " is based on the commitment of life surrender versus the world and all its vain glory and comfort.

As we continue to journey towards the unknown world, it is important as a believer of Christ to make that stand earlier on without compromise. And by doing so, we are recommitting to our Lord Jesus that when everything fails, our faith will still stand.

The real virus

Debt virus

You to go to school but make sure your in debt after school.

Buy an expensive house and be in 30 yrs of debt.

Buy an expensive car and be in debt

Get married but get in debt paying off your wedding, the ring and the dress

Throw an expensive party but then be in debt

Start a business but get a business loan and paying it off for the duration of the business. And until the business is run to the ground or you die.

This is how society brain wash us to live.

Education virus

Be trained for everything except knowing the Higher Power ( God)

Be trained for everything except race relations

Be trained for everything except history

Be trained for everything except financial (return of interest ROI)

Be trained for everything except ownership or self reliance (getting out of debt)

Religion virus

Go to church but sin freely

Go to church but keep God in the pocket until next Sunday

Go to church but keep your religion to yourself.

Go to church but have no prayer life

Go to church but never read the Bible

Go to church but make no attempt to walk out an touch people where they are

Go to church but never hear the gospel of Jesus Christ

Stormy Wind

Have you seen the storm from the east? 

The fiercest storm that when it blows, 

the ground shakes and the pebbles and the leaves fly off from the trees.

A mighty storm which when it blows, the force of the wind carries the water through 

and spreads it across the land.

Nobody will dare to defy it!

None will have the strength to push back its force.

It moves freely without hindrance and destroys everything on its path.

It comes without an invitation and on fertile land; it ravages the crops and makes the whole land desolate.

When all the necessary ingredients and the soil are gone, then the wind will cease from its wrath. 

Surely, the same can be said of the tribulations that cleave to the children of God. It gives his proponents, no chance of resilience; from the least to the great.

Tribulations comes like a wind, sweeps the ground and laughs as it passes through the plain.

The time will come when the children of the Father will have their rest, from all works. 

But in such wilderness, tribulations will come as the wind.

Seasons of tribulations, such great distress that makes man's heart grow colder.

The weak runs and cuddles in fear, the strong may resist for a while ; before gradually retreating in due season.

In such a way the Lord uses it to test His children; He breaks down and tears apart the coverings; unveils the heart.

He removes the shrubs and dead leaves, 

and waits for the harvest. 

The wind will certainly come back but for the children of the Father,  it will be glorious. He will stand out from the rest and will shine like a star.

He will have no blemish but seen in his light. Like a final molding by the Great Sculptor; the final story of the Magnificent Author; the final craft of the Peculiar Blacksmith. 

The Father will surely finish his work, 

his work that he began beforehand the foundation of the world.  

~excerpt from North and South Gate:a tale of two voices.

Character speaks louder

At a certain age, you  should stop listening to what people say but what they do.

Bible Study

When you study the entire Bible by yourself, you get more perspective of who God is to you than any preacher's interpretation, book, music, creation, logic or an individual experience

faultfinder

Just like in the garden of Eden, God told Adam and Eve to eat all trees except one.

Same as marriage; when we see all the great quality in our spouse except one, we then pry into that one flaw and then we fall.

The Spirit of Anti-Christ

Seasoned words

Be careful of who you allow to speak into your life.  There are people who will give you advise and leave you feeling small. They will size you up and then try to bring you down to a lower level. 

Flattery is evil but so is downsizing words. In Colossians 4:6, it says ' let your speech be always with grace, seasoned with salt, that you may know how you ought to answer every man'. So let us speak respectfully to one another.

The fatalistic mindset

When someone falls off the building, a fatalist will say things like this, "Was the person sleeping when he fell?  Well then, if he was sleeping, he should've stayed awake". (Fatalist)

In His presence

When we stand in the presence of God, the scales of self begins to peel off.

Holiness

We wash our hands and feet every day but what about washing our hearts? 

Spirit of Perversion

Make memories

Make memories of each moment,  live, laugh, sing, and dance; some friends are for a season, some are for a lifetime but love all of them equally.  

Limitations

Accept no limitations placed on you by others, your circumstances or worst all,  yourself. (warfare) 

Spirit of God come

Holy Spirit come, 

Precious Lord come,

Author of eternal salvation come;

The surface of waters and the Earth Inhabitants are deformed!

Move in to these dark places;

Move in to these dark souls

Spirit of God

Spirit of truth

Spirit of knowledge

Spirit of counsel

Spirit of fire (power)

Spirit of the fear of the Lord

Spirit of the Lord

Holy Spirit come;

Precious Lord Jesus come;

Author of eternal salvation come;

The surface of the waters and the Earth

Inhabitants are deformed!

Move in to these dark places;

Move in to these dark souls.

Majesty on high

Majesty on high

All to the praise

Of Majesty on high

God of the unverse;

The Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit

Hallelujah, He is the ruler

The ruler of all saints

The great High Priest for all saints

The King of Glory

Majesty on high

To the praise of our God

You rose on the third day;

And sat on the right hand of the Father.

The dominion and all the principalities;

All bow down to you.

O great High Priest

Ruler of the saints

The great High Priest for the saints;

The King of Glory

 

The value of money

Money is nothing. The will of God is everything; material resources are subsidiary to God's work.

Strife

Waste no time in strife and grudging, because all is vanity.  

Spirit of Pride

Healing: truth vs lies

Always speak the truth no matter how it hurts. After the truth is revealed then healing starts, and everything will eventually heal. But lies consumes you, and you have to cover everything up and will always lie again to cover up old lies.

Leadership

The heart of any movement rests with the leader,  leaders lead by example, when they start leading from behind,  quietly abandon your post and run.

Ignorance

Ignorance is the world's deadliest poison that cannot be seen, heard, touch, taste or smell.

Spirit of Heaviness (Spiritual Discernment)

North and South Gate 1

Prophecy for April, 2020

There's is a great void and for people of America to return to the Bible and learn from God's word. God said that He will bless the nation only when we return to God's word and honor His Word. 

Inward and upward

This season with the virus, God is doing greater works. And is saying to His people, look inward and look up to Me. Examine your hearts and repent and turn to Me.

Names of Christ

The Body of Believers

The Ultimate Price

Everything comes with a price, do not pay the price by following another person's dreams, follow God's lead.

The ultimate guide to a person's destiny is to be in the presence of God. When you seek God and follow his lead he will guide you to your destiny.

Leaders are individuals who set their own course.  They follow their gut and do what others are afraid to do even  when it results to being ostracized and labeled by the pundits. 

They are people who love to sell you their dreams. Most time is wasted on doing other people's work or dream. We all can remember at a time in our childhood days when we follow others that looked cool and important and make empty promises but when you attempt to walk alone they brand you as oddballs. 

 The same goes as we become adults. People who walk alone are considered as boring or self absorbed, hopeless thinkers and misfits. 

We are to chart the course God had set for us and remember that His ways are the best and not bother ourselves with the naysayers. They will only delay you for with their own misfortune.

Speak when the time comes

Do not waste time talking to people with small dreams,  love them but keep your idealism entirely to yourself until the right person comes along.

Build up your foundation and save words for later. Never join a speaking contest with bunch of talking heads that only produce words and never actions. Small people with small dreams can only drag you to their small mindset. Dreams and visions are to be cherished by action and not words. They are people who will love to speak negativity and discouraging words towards your endeavors if you let them. As in speaking to them about your dreams and trying to win their approval . Keep all things in perspective and eliminate those who are not able to challenge you to greatness. Eliminate time wasters and people who have small dreams and keep nourishing your dreams until the right people comes along.

Moving forward

Be wise today or tomorrow you will sit down with fools

Whatever you do today will set up your trajectory for tomorrow. 

Time is man's worst enemy because time waits for no man. You can never negotiate with time, once it comes, it goes. If you waste it, you can never get it back. 

So it is imperative not to waste time with anything that has no value to your purpose. Get into the habit of maximizing your time.

Sometimes we waste time waiting for things to happen before we step out of faith. Whether we are waiting for the right time to get situated or some pie in the sky but the truth to the matter is that those times may never come unless we begin to move towards it with a clear intention.

A man who has less can do with less to get to where he's going. There's is a thin line between waiting for the right moment and waiting for things to happen. When we wait for the right moment, we can still continue to prepare for that moment. However, when we wait for things to happen, we aren't preparing ourselves but only being a spectator. You are either moving forward or being stagnant. When you move forward you open other possibilities that you wouldn't have while being stagnant.

 If you're stagnant you will drift back to self-doubt and wishful thinking. So let's go forward and leave all the doubts behind!

Know your limits

Know your limitations,  embrace your uniqueness where you have no limits. (wisdom) *

In Nsukka Nigeria, I played soccer throughout my childhood life. I used to think soccer will be a ticket out for me. I will chase down my father's car when coming back from school and I will picture myself as a winger running through, dribbling and scoring a lot of goals.  I dreamt soccer at morning, day and night. Soccer was my passion. But

when I started growing taller, I wasn't as creative with the soccer ball. I began to loose the ground leverage that most great soccer players have and I totally lost interest in soccer. 

When I came to the United States at the age of 15, I began to adopt the game of basketball. I figured that the money and fame that came with it will give me the sense of passion that the game of soccer did.

And with my height and soccer foot work I will only be required to jump as high and put the ball into the net. I mean how hard can that be? If Hakeem Olajuwon did it why can't I? But with Hakeem, he was about a foot taller than me and has had years of practice; I was just starting.

So I settled at being not a center but a guard until I saw a majestic 17 year old kid named Kobe Bryant who just played the game with so ease and confidant that made me realize that, if I have to play the game of basketball with that much confidant it will require passion and lost of practice. At this time I was 17 and don't have to age of my side , so I gave up in general with sports and joined the military. Now, I don't want to talk too much about my experiences in the military because it is just me threading on too many grounds. The obvious is clear that military was just a place I stumbled into and it gave me comfort which I desperately needed at the time. But my passion slowly died within me. I hated sports and did not want to participate in it. If I can't be the best in it why even bother? I have finally made peace with my limitations. Concerning my uniqueness, I have found my unlimited potential, thanks to the military I was able to charter different pathways that finally landed me to a place where I met 3 believers of Jesus Christ who led me or I would say planted a seed in me to search the scriptures about the one true God. I discovered some truths about scriptures that I was kept away from. Growing up as a Roman Catholic, you hardly read the Bible except being read by a priest on Sundays but mostly God's word was obscured. I later in life began searching for truth and with my inquisitive sense I began studying the Bible after I had made to confession of faith.  I later discovered who God really is and what a relief to know that there is no limitation to where my inquisitiveness will take me. I am finally at peace to know that my unique gift is finding and searching the scriptures and finding out the truth of God's word and wisdom. 

So to many people who are always looking answers and what a message I can give is to know your limitations,  embrace your uniqueness where you have no limits.

Faith

Nothing is impossible for God but impossible for a man who lacks faith.

There's no mountain that you can't climb. There's no limit to where you can't reach if you have faith in God. Stepping out of faith is never comfortable especially when you don't have a whole lot of answers and control about the situation. But with God all things are possible. The problem is that without faith in God and yourself your simply chasing dreams. 

Faith is everything that can cause even the greatest obstacles to crumble. You can achieve so much if you have faith in God and within yourself. So be strong in faith. Trust your instincts and trust God and never ever doubt. 

Life

To know Life you have to be exposed to life. When other birds are busy flying, a caged bird is busy stretching its wings. 

When look back and see the struggles of a young man who practically grew up alone and without much guidance. It resonates within me that life is full of adventures and mysteries. It reveals nothing unless we step out and face it head on. 

I had to meet life head on and I got badly bruised by its storm. But every scar tissue gave me a better perspective. Nothing is easy and it requires sheer dedication and prayer. I am a living witness that you don't always have to have everything together in order to make a giant leap into life phases. You are never prepared. I wasn't prepared to meet every circumstances of life, I was just thrusted into it. The challenges and victories is what makes everything in life worthwhile. 

Success

Celebrate success with very few people. most people that are happy for you are those who have invested themselves in you. When we make the mistake is when we invite people who haven't journeyed with us in our trials and tribulations to celebrate our success. 

This is not wise. When we invite success we also invite jealousy, envy, and strife. People are not fond of seeing others have what they have been striving to achieve but couldn't  because of their own misfortune or limitation. So therefore, success is to be celebrated in a timely manner with timely people lest your enemy will dine with you with daggers and swords.

Raising my son

The most difficult moment is letting go of your child whom you have raised and seeing them advance into the new phase of their life. I can remember my son when he was very young and helpless. I will take him everywhere like a handbag in the playgrounds, school, after school programs, church, the beach and hospital for routine checkups. As a young man, I knew my father but he was absent from most of the time and I wanted to be there for my son and cherish every moment of his young life. I came to know the Lord at my late 20's and with that comes the blessings of being a  godly parent and also the challenges as well.  I will sometimes wear both hats since my son's mother wasn't in my son's life often. But now as he grows into adulthood, it is a pleasure to see him mature and becoming more independent of me. He is to grow into his own person and make difficult decisions. My greatest joy is seeing my son becoming a man of God and knowing God for himself. I am really proud of him and I have no regrets of how I raised him. But now I have to learn to release him to the Lord. I believe that part of being a godly parent is not just training your children about God but releasing them to the Lord.
